The Dinner Society

The Zodiac Club began with simple guidelines
- There could only be 12 members in the club at one time. - Each member represented a Zodiac sign, which was inherited from their predecessor by death or resignation. - Resignation was only for those with ailing health or those who were too old to participate. - New members had to be unanimously supported by the other 11 members. - New members were invited to dinner. - Each month, one member was the appointed "caterer" who organized dinner.
